There wasn’t much available that cold December But a worn out stable with a manger for a bed Mary wanted nothin’ more than to remember The moment she laid that kiss upon His head
She sang, fa-la-la-la-la, fa-la-la-la-la Oh, little town of Bethlehem She sang, fa-la-la-la-la, fa-la-la-la-la Oh, come and worship Him
And she stared at Him all night She stared at Him all night She stared at Him all silent holy night, yeah She stared at Him all night
The wise men came with incense, gold, and myrrh The little drummer boy, he played a song or two When they all were gone you could hear the oxen stir Mary sat back on the hay and she enjoyed the view
She sang, fa-la-la-la-la, fa-la-la-la-la Hark, the herald angels sing She sang, fa-la-la-la-la, fa-la-la-la-la You are the king of kings
And she stared at Him all night She stared at Him all night She stared at Him all silent holy night She stared at Him all night
As the minutes ticked away from the first Noel The stars, they soon gave way to the mornin’ light And the world was changed that dark night in December Now it’s up to all of us to get it right
So we sing, fa-la-la-la-la, fa-la-la-la-la Oh, You are the prince of peace We sing, fa-la-la-la-la, fa-la-la-la-la And blessed are the meek We sing, fa-la-la-la-la, fa-la-la-la-la Hark, the herald angels sing We sing, fa-la-la-la-la, fa-la-la-la-la You are the king of kings
And she stared at Him all night She stared at Him all night She stared at Him Yes, she stared at Him all night She stared at Him all night She stared at Him all silent holy night Yeah, yeah, she stared at Him all night She stared at Him all night
